| Service Delivery
Whether you are re-entering the
workforce after a break, entering it for the first time or
find yourself having to change employers, it can be a daunting
process especially with the application processes used in today's
workplace.
When you choose
CVGT as your Job Network provider, Centrelink will arrange
an appointment for you with CVGT. When you attend your first
appointment CVGT will complete a Vocation Profile (electronic resume)
and explain our full range of services.
After you have registered
with CVGT you have access to:
Telephones to contact employers
Internet for Job Searching
A touch screen computer
Word Processing facilities
Photocopier for resumes and applications
Fax machine to send off resumes and applications
to employers and other job agencies
People who receive a benefit from Centrelink and most
young people, also have access to a range of services
which are provided by CVGT, these include:
Employment Preparation: Employment Preparation is
a government program directed towards Parent and Mature
Age clients who are re-entering the workforce after a
considerable absence. This program is tailored to the
individual requirements of each person.
Job Search Training: We prefer to call this program
"Tackling the ever changing Working Maze". This program
will help you prepare or refine your resume, show you
different alternatives for looking for work, finding the
hidden job market, coach you with interview techniques,
understanding what the employer requires when you apply
for a vacancy and many other aspects of looking for work
in today's employment market.
Community Work Co-ordinators: We can help you to
interact with a Community Work Co-ordinator (CWC).
These providers deliver Work for the Dole and also
liaise with other Volunteer organisations. Volunteering
in a Community Project can provide with you practical
experience and/or skills. It gives you a chance to engage
in a working environment and could lead to a valuable
referee for your resume. Many participants have been offered
paid employment through their participation in these projects,
and there is an added bonus of being eligible for Training
Credits (these credits can pay for courses, licenses etc),
when you have completed the required amount of hours.
Customised Assitance: All of our services are customised
to suit each persons individual requirements, but through
this program we can offer a more intense service and provide
you with that little bit of extra help that may be just
what is need to allow you to flourish.
